Chapter 1768: Chapter 1768: Not Admitting
“Letters can be forged, but handwriting cannot, moreover, Lady Gu has never seen your handwriting, Miss Leng, it is impossible to forge. As for the eyewitnesses, apart from the ones found by Lady Gu and Young Master Gu, I have also found two eyewitnesses.” As soon as the Prince of Chu finished speaking, Leng Jingxian and the Leng butler were both taken aback; they did not expect that the Prince of Chu also found eyewitnesses.
Without looking again at Leng Jingxian and the Leng butler, the Prince of Chu signaled with his eyes to the County Magistrate on the court. Understanding the Prince’s intention, the County Magistrate imdiately arranged for the constables to bring in the two n who were guarding outside the court. Leng Jingxian turned pale as soon as she saw the two n. Although the Leng butler did not know what relationship those two n had with his young lady, seeing the expression on Leng Jingxian’s face, he privately thought this was not good.
Apparently, these two n were known by his young lady, not only known, but could it be that these two were really involved with his young lady in conspiring against Su Yunjin? The Leng butler was quietly thinking this was not good. At first, the Leng butler thought that the Prince of Chu would help them. With the Prince of Chu’s help, he didn’t have to worry too much. Such a small matter, the Prince of Chu would surely handle it. This was the reason the Leng butler ca directly to the court without any further preparation. Before the Leng butler left, the Pri Minister instructed him to give the letter to the Prince of Chu as soon as they reached the town, the sa as what the Prince of Ning also did.
The Pri Minister has always been ticulous in his affairs, so the butler didn’t have to worry too much. Besides, the Leng Residence had significant influence in Jincheng, and the Leng Residence had already expressed their intentions, so the Prince of Chu would definitely not refuse the support of the Leng Residence. When the Leng butler first arrived, he was very confident, convinced that he could definitely rescue Leng Jingxian.
Things did not go as planned, as events developed to this point, many things were already beyond the Leng butler’s planned scope. Especially the attitudes of the Prince of Ning and the Prince of Chu. The Prince of Ning rejected the Pri Minister’s letter directly yesterday, stating he would handle things impartially, while the Prince of Chu did not state his position after reading the letter, neither rejecting nor agreeing. The Leng butler assud the Prince of Chu’s silence was a sign of consent, but who would have thought that today in the court, the Prince of Chu also did not offer any help.
The Leng butler was feeling anxious and unsettled, fearing he would not be able to save Leng Jingxian. The Pri Minister had trusted him so much over the years and entrusted him with the matter of the young lady; if he failed to rescue Miss Leng this ti, he would have no face to face the Pri Minister again upon returning to Jincheng.
The Prince of Chu seed detached throughout, sitting aside, rely watching without any expression, nor did he express any intention to help Leng Jingxian.
“These two people, does Miss Leng recognize them?” The Prince of Ning pointed to the two n just brought in by the constables and questioned sternly. Leng Jingxian was already feeling guilty, and after the two n were brought in, her feeling of guilt intensified. Before Leng Jingxian could speak, the Leng butler spoke up first.
“Your Highness, they…” The butler’s defense was interrupted by the Prince of Ning’s cold voice, “Silence! It is Miss Leng whom I am asking, and it should be Miss Leng herself who responds.”
The Leng butler stayed silent but used his eyes to urge Leng Jingxian to deny it, “Your Highness, I… I do not know these two n.” With a determined heart, not daring to look at the Prince of Ning, Leng Jingxian denied knowing the two n.
“Miss Leng, did you forget? That day, wasn’t it you and your two maids who found us brothers and asked us to help you kidnap Lady Gu?” The two n spoke simultaneously. Leng Jingxian’s face turned even paler.
